Public bug reported:

Hello,

I noticed the Firecracker 1.1.0 hypervisor announced MMDS v1 deprecation
in favor of MMDS v2 (https://github.com/firecracker-
microvm/firecracker/releases/tag/v1.1.0).

The MMDS v2 is a a session-oriented and request to get and use API_TOKEN
like EC2 Metadata service IMDSv2.

Cloud-init can be used with firecracker medatada service using NoCloud
data source as is described in https://ongres.com/blog/automation-to-
run-vms-based-on-vanilla-cloud-images-on-firecracker/. However this is
going to stop to work with MMDS v2 where the guest cannot get any user-
data/meta-data by cloud-init any more due to missing API_TOKEN in
request.

Can you please implement API_TOKEN feature into NoCloud data source?

Many thanks,
